This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_22:17 Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.
Ver. 17. Behold, the Lord will carry thee away, &c.] Or, Is casting thee out with casting, O thou mighty man. Not, God will carry thee away as a cock is carried, so the Vulgate translator hath it; which caused a learned interpreter to say he wondered whence this cock flew into the text.
And will surely cover thee.] As they used to do to condemned persons unworthy any longer to see the light, they covered their faces, {as Job_9:24 Est_7:8} {See Trapp on "Job_9:24"} {See Trapp on "Est_7:8"}
